it was a nice day for a cruise when i came up to a out of province bimmer, blowing thru our city it was debadged so at first i thought it was a older model 325 or 328.
when the light changed i got the jump on him shifting into second i was a car ahead of him at 60mph i was two cars ahead and all of a sudden i notice that he was reeling me in when i shifted into third he was at me bumper, at 80 he was even with me at 90 he had taken the lead by a half a car at 100 he was 3 car lenghts ahead when i had shut it down.
when he came neck to me i noticed this was no ordinary 325/328 it was a 850

man this car hauled.

any one race one of these

i looked the car up and these suckers have v-12 in them.

 

How can you mistaken an 850 for an early model 325/328? Doesn't the 850 have those pop-up headlights?

Those 850s are TITS!

 

how could you mistake an 850 for a 3 series

 

:o

 

Plus the 850 is like 1 1/2 car longer than a 3 series...
Those 850's haul ass...

 

nice killed

he should have reeled you in much sooner tho

 

Nice death. The 850 is one of my favorite cars.

 

I've seen one on the road in my life, didn't even know about them till a few months ago when my buddy asked me about them. Still, I didn't think it looked like a 3 at all.

 

V-12 baby.... does 14s easy... HW Cruiser Missile.... the CLS shine in 3rd up 100-110MPH after which it hits the 4th wall...

But man I do not want to race beyond 100 MPH anyways...

BTW... 3 car lengths at 100 MPH is like 0.3sec difference .... so if your CLS does 14.5s he is doing 14.2s... Since you jumped him on the light... he might be just doing 14s.... a CLS-6 would be a good race with the V12 850!!!

 

nice killes, what year they stop making those

 

97 i think...actually they are nice, but not $90k nice. 375 hp but barely in the 13s?

still, i always slow down when i come up on one, and check it out for a good long time.

 

Those 850's are no joke. Does anybody know if they still produce them? If not does anybody know where I could find one of them? I have never actually sat in one or anything. That would be pretty sweet.

 

haha, thats exactly what i was thinking. A 12 cyl. in a 3 series, thats the dumbest thing I ever heard:P

 

No they dont make the 850s anymore, I think the largest they make is the new 745. By the way, they V12 in the 850 is the same engine that powers the fastest production car in the world- the McLaren F1.

 

Ya first you race a 350z and it blows up. Now your saying you hold even with an 850 to 100?


You probably raced a 325 and since you have an auto you hit the magical wall at 110.

for a guy from toronto you must be one dumb ass that can't read i was even till 80 after that he pulled away. at 100 he was 3 car lenghts ahead.

 

acuatly it was my buddy that reconized it i never seen one before.

another buddy says since it was debadge it easily could have been and 840.

 

So this time the car didn't blow up? You go back and the guy was drooling over your car while his car just blew up?

 

[QUOTE]Originally posted by goldcltype-s
[B]3 cars ahead at 100? That would make him close to 1.0 second faster in the 1/4mile. But for him to put 3 cars on you between 80-100 seems incredible. Your story is very questionable or he wasn't going full out between 0-80 and/or you had a major jump.

 

 

Ya I guess I am a hater. I hate on stupid race story posts and stupid follow up comments that have no content. An 850 would rip an NA CL-S including TypeR in his 14 second fully modded ride. I've seen a 2002 5spd Altima with just an intake run a 13.9.

 

I believe that it is possible that he kept up until about a hundred, remember 3 cars is a lot, plus if they would have kept going, he probably would have been to far back to count. Nice killed ::

 

You know, everytime you post it seems to make this whole site more dumb. Why don't you take your ass somewhere else?

 

They look nothing like a 3 series or any bmw for that matter. You have to be an idiot not to realize the almost 2 foot wide tires in the back. Those things look mean!

 

Every post has some "I've seen a ...Nissan POS... with just a sticker mod run a 13.xx". He must live at the track to have seen sooooo many Nissans run these times. Lets all chip in and get this guy a "Who gives a shit" bumper sticker.

 

Now that is straight up hatin'!

 

You are truly pathetic in the utmost sense.

You like to debate but provide no source of information which is from your own experience. You are just plain sad...

 

Run 13's

 

And this means what???

I have run 12's before, not in the CL but in other cars. I've run low 13's in a truck but that means nothing.

As mentioned in another post, provide one Nissan you supported that is south of the Mason-Dixon line that has run 13's NA and the discussion will commence. Also, drive your own car, stop living on others, that is pathetic...

 

thanks for the complement,
i had never seen one before and when i came up to at the light i figured it hd to be a older 3-series since that its the only line that makes the two door( the 6-series is much bigger) his tires were no bigger than what we have on our cl's. thats why when i was neck and neck i noticed that the front end was not of a 3-series.
if it werent for my buddy i would have thought it was a kit car like i said i never have seen one of these, i figured that why he had it debadge,

sorry for being an idoit,
maybe that the price for living in a small town.

since i been flamed so bad in this thread, i phoned the service counter at bmw in vancouver,

he was more than happy to talk about since he own one
the most common 850 is the i model, it has 300 horses and a auto will do 0-60 in about 7.2 seconds then after that they haul ass.
he said it would have been a close race to 75-85 if the car had low milage ,than the bmw would have pulled away.


the rare csi had the 375 horses and wee a street killer,
i would have seen his rear all the way to a 100.

 

It wasn't this "BMW" was it? haha

Everytime I see this, I don't know whether to vomit or laugh.

 

no, looks like a pimp 635ci

 

Poll show's that 6spd dream is not liked here

*******************************

i thing you need to go to the nissian site and play with your pals there,your hated here,

since your such a hater maybe one of the moderators can block you out. your 60+ posts have been nothing but negative attacks against the members here.

i don't drive a Cl, but my dad does and i think this is one of the best site's around ,there is a lot of good people here and there giving you the says alot about you
you need to remeber that your not involved in any of the races and things can happen. Also many people leave details out and get the point, so if someone gets a kill or gets killed
why don't you take part and be more positive and leave your nissan bullshit

 

This is the beast he is referring to. This is the 850CSI of 94'. I love this car. I plan on trying to get one by the end of this year if I save some freaking money. One hell of a car.

 

thats the one

 

850 Csi put out over 400 HP. The 850i I believe put out like 340-350.

 

from the bmw service desk

the most common 850 is the i model, it has 300 horses and a auto will do 0-60 in about 7.2 seconds then after that they haul ass.
the rare csi had the 375 horses and was a street killer,
i would have seen nothing but his rear all the way to a 100.

 

Duh, sorry I confused it with TQ figures. The regular 850i put out 296HP and the Csi put out 374HP. Either one not too fast off the line, but beast while moving.

 

i tell you at first i thought i was going to blow the doors off of this thing,then all of a sudden this thing was gaining on me, i have raced a lot of cars and for stock this car sure hauled after 60 mph.

i'm sure the CSI would have been like racing the lightning,or a ws6
